From the Ocean to Your Table
Bell Buoy was started in 1946 by the local Sigurdson family as a way to sell their crab catches. Up until 1992, Bell Buoy was a wholesale company that sold a small amount of fresh seafood via retail. In 2002, the Hartill brothers, Jon and Terry, purchased the business and turned it into a local retail destination with a restaurant and booming retail store.
Bell Buoy is currently a family run business, owned by Terry and Marcia Hartill. Terry has been a leader in the seafood industry for 54 years.
Always
Fresh Fish
From the boat to your table, you know where your dinner came from!
Take a quick trip to the Oregon Coast. We're just over hour from Portland, and miles away from the hustle and bustle. Come discover the taste of fresh razor clams, succulent crab and fresh tuna.
Our cafe always has a pot of clam chowder simmering and tasty tuna melts ready to serve. Picnic tables by the river are a perfect place to take a basket of our fish and chips and watch the ducks float by. Whatever you choose to sample, a taste of the sea is always waiting for you at Bell Buoy!
